- Last week, I very last minute booked a cooking workshop with Maria Rita with my husband & parents. And it was truly a-ma-zing! Maria Rita is a beautiful, genuine person, very approachable and a wonderful chef. We immediately felt right at home. I made a request and so she taught us no less than 3 (or actually 4!) typical Sicilian dishes including pizza Margherita, 2 types of pasta with a delicious pistachio pesto and cannoli 🤤 My husband, parents and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I can’t wait to get started myself with all these delicious dishes! 😍 If you have even a slight passion for cooking I say DO IT!
- Simply the best food; a great cooking class; but above all, sweet Sicilian hospitality. Maria Lisa and Pepe made my wife’s birthday truly special!
- Maria was the absolute best host my friends and I could have asked for. She was so inclusive and welcoming. She truly made it feel like we were right at home. She gave us options about what we wanted to make. She made sure we were all comfortable and happy. Maria was also hysterical, I spent half the night laughing. Making pasta is not always easy but Maria made sure to help when it was needed and never moved too fast. Maria, was full of life and made this experience unforgettable. This was hands down my favorite activity during my 2 week trip to Europe! If I ever come back to Syracuse, I will make sure to take another one of Maria's classes!
- Our traditional cooking class was a wonderful experience. Maria Rita presented the class in a fun and educational way capturing the taste of true Sicilian cuisine. The experience felt like eating a meal prepared with love between friends. Maria Rita was generous it what was offered as well as opening her home up to make this a truly authentic experience. I highly recommend this class.
- The best cooking class I have ever done ! The host is Very sympathic, cooking like a real Sicilian chef ! The recepies are great, the location and the vibes too !! Thank you Maria Rita

Maria Rita
Cesarina from 2022Location: Syracuse (SR) Languages: Italian, Spanish, English"I love cooking because it relaxes me and takes me away from the stress of life. I love sweets and decorations and I am constantly studying with first courses, second courses and side dishes. I love the Mediterranean diet, I prefer fish but I like to vary. I love having friends. and family members at home, despite my work I commit a lot, because the table unites .... My family appreciates a lot and always asks for something new to offer on the table "
